Debt Settlement

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and struggling with high debt payments, we want to help! The stress of worrying about creditors coming after the money owed can be enough for some people.

Many people face a financial crisis at some point in their life. From personal and family health issues to job loss or overspending your budget — you are not alone. We know it is overwhelming, and you need to know there is help.

When it comes to debt, there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why debt settlement could be the right choice for you.

What is debt settlement?

Debt settlement is the process of negotiating with creditors to reduce the amount of outstanding debt. The goal of debt settlement is to reach a deal in which the debtor (you) pays less than the total amount owed on the debt. This reduced payment is called a “settlement” or “agreement” amount.

Debt settlement programs are an alternative to ignoring the debt or filing for bankruptcy!

debt settlement benefits

  • Often as much as 60% of debt is reduced or forgiven. This number is the goal and could be higher or lower, depending on the creditor and type of debt.

  • Debt settlement could prevent future lawsuits and court judgments.

  • Collection calls stop.

  • Minimizes the need to file bankruptcy.

  • Can improve credit score.

  • Debt settlement lowers your monthly payment and frees up cash flow to plan for future financial goals.

Types of Debts Eligible for Settlement

For the most part, credit card debt and personal loans tend to be the best candidates for debt settlement because settlements have a better probability of recouping their money. 

However, it is harder to negotiate agreements with medical debt or government loans, such as student debt. It is not impossible, but student loans comes with three stipulations that the average person may not realize:

You typically pay 90% of the debt for settlements.

You have to check constantly for any government forgiveness programs.

If you are behind, you are required to complete a trial period before they reinstate you.

Since banks usually issue private student loans, they have a better chance of settling a debt for less than what is owed.
